A New Tipping System

I have an idea for a new tipping system at restaurants: none.

No, I am not saying that we should give the people serving us nothing, in addition to the $2.13/hour they are making. I am advocating that restaurant owners should begin adding in to the price of their food how much they would like the servers to make, then charge that addition to us, and do away with the tipping system.

Example: Let's say a meal costs $10. Let's say the restaurant owner wishes that you would tip his/her worker about $2. That meal would now cost $12. You simply pay for it, get up, and leave. No wondering how much you should tip. It is what it is. The server knows how much from that meal they will be receiving as a wage.

Seems pretty simple to me.

Then again, maybe there's a reason that I am not a restaurant owner.
